What does Obasanjo want again?

SIR: Of a truth, we all need somebody in life to help us realise our dream and vision. Therefore the only thing President Goodluck Jonathan owes the Ota farmer is to tell him thanks if he thinks the man was instrumental to his present political status. Nothing more and nothing less. The Ota Farmer must be in deep and irredeemable slumber if he thinks his assistance to the President gives him ever-lasting political licence to always ‘remote-control’ him at any given time.

I do not know whether the President intends to vie again in the next general election, but I do know that he has the unquestionable constitutional right to do so. Consequently, I urge him not to worry about the venomous ranting of the Ota farmer because it is on record, that the man can be defeated anytime, any day. Ask Chief Bola Tinubu who has since shown the world that the man is not immune to defeat. I urge Nigerians to resist any attempt for him to resurrect from the political sarcophagus Tinubu sent him to since 2011.

President does not need the Ota farmer to win any election in the South West; rather he needs men like Tinubu, the great political leader of the Oduduwa nation.

Wonders, they say, will never end. How can a man who could not conduct a free, fair, credible and accepted election in Nigeria during his days at Aso Rock suddenly became fit to participate in Ghana’s electoral process as a monitor? His electoral legacies includes the transmogrification of ballot boxes into magic boxes with clear capacity to disappear from polling unit and only to re-appear at collation centres. God-fathers announced election result instead of INEC from their bedrooms. Hired species of ‘gallow birds’ invade polling units distributing death certificates to prospective voters with materials of war on election day. This was the same man who was in Ghana as election monitor. Poor Ghanaians!

Those who know the Ota farmer should please advise him to proceed on compulsory retirement from politics because he belongs to the generation of men who have failed us. I think the youth should be allowed to sail the ship of leadership. Those who have ears let them hear.

Chief Obasanjo still remained a Living Heros of Democratization movement of Africa. Onehimere- this article confirmed that Nigerians only celebrates and honor their Heros death which is very unwise of a Nation. Saying former president to retired from politics shows that the writer was ignorance of politics, Nelson mandela is celebrated by south africans and remained relevant in only south africa politics but Chief Obasanjo is not only relevant in africa politics but WORLD politics, Mandela is not as important as chief obasanjo. The former president is celebrated as (Father Democracy) which is better than celebrated Father Chrismas.

Uncle Sege is a force to be recorgne with whether you like it or not. His importance in the present day political terrain is unexplainable. He remain as a stumbling block to some self acclaimed political gods. He is a genius that come once in a generation. Flash back on Nigeria history, you cannot but accept that it is not complete without mentioning his name repeatedly. Pleas let us learn to celebrate our leaders. Remenber nobody is perfect.
